The necro joke at the beginning was really creepy and uncomfortable but I absolutely adored the rest, I guess I'll just take it as an edgy joke

I just remembered that Yamada's seiyuu is Youmiya Hina, the same seiyuu who acted as Shinju from My Dress Up Darling (Sono Bisque), another tall and well-endowed middle school girl character.

Dreadfully dull. I turned this off after just 10 minutes. For such an interesting-sounding premise, I was expecting to actually see more ridiculous/violent fantasies from the main character early on. I mean, it's not interesting if he keeps saying he's not right in the head without us seeing much evidence of that. If he wants to kill her most of all, give us a silly montage of ways he wants to off her. That scene where they're alone together in the library was a prime place for something like that, but it just dragged on instead. Hard pass on this series.

Congratulations, you saved your time from watching a great romcom with interesting and believeable characters. It's like turning off the movie First Blood after 3 minutes and dismissing it because there's no one brutally killed in a rainforest by Rambo, or something.

Just watched the first episode, this seems like fun!

For a second I thought I was looking at Komi-san, when I saw Anna. They could be sisters, haha.

I like the girl's cute giant vibe. These two are completely mismatched but...I will suspend my disbelief for now.

This boy has problems.

When's a male mc ever worthy in anime rom-coms? It's always the dweeby mangakas self-projecting

Another one of those innocent and wholesome-looking shows, and it's even by the same studio that did Takagi-san. Nothing will probably top Takagi-san, but I guess I'll check it out and maybe enjoy some nice and wholesome vibes....

I knew it had a Takagi feel! But yeah, it's not gonna approach Takagi level

Takagi: Teasing Edgelord Edition.

It was actually a pretty fun start though. A bit raunchier than I expected with the other boys (especially the chubby chaser), but it's having some cute moments already. The way Yamada egged Ichikawa on in the "cat fight" was pretty rich.

Honestly its cuter than i first anticipated it to be, the edgelord emo mc is in my opinion a good representation of how it feels to be in that headspace during your middleschool years, especially when you had a crush. People may consider how he acts and think "cringe" and its true, but give the guy a break he's a literal child lol. Also Yamada also has some pretty interesting characterization so far, you don't see those kinds of female characters often in these types of animes. All in all im looking forward to the rest of the series.

Decent start... some of the scenes were only there for the plot/charecter relationships to develop, kinda forced too, but in terms on entertainment a 5 so 4/5 entertainment matters the most :)

FINALLY!!
The first episode of Bokuyaba has been released.
I love the manga, and when they confirmed the anime I was definitely going to watch it.
I really liked the first episode, it was really good. The opening is nice.
(Chapters 1 to 6 of the manga adapted (Chap. 4 only the first part))

This protagonist is super cringy. Anybody with that haircut who proclaims that their mental state is shattered is just immature and probably thinks they will benefit from some negative attention. If the show were to outwardly support this behavior, I would probably dislike it. That being said, it seems to me that the show understands the protagonist is cringey and that's probably the whole point. As we've already seen with two of the other characters, this show seems to be going for the somewhat unique approach (for an anime) of using cringe-humor, or at the very least humoring cringe as a plot device.

It is worth mentioning that a show like this could be problematic if seen by the wrong person. There are certainly people I have encountered in my life that would probably watch this show and, in a display of utter immaturity, ignore any potential development of the protagonist and simply believe he is cool for his edgy nature. That being said, I do not think this would inherently be the show's fault, and more so the fault of the audience member. I could see this kind of misinterpretation and response being more likely with a show such as this than any other show due to the state of the protagonist.

Additionally, any self-respecting (or not even) girl in the real world, especially an attractive one, will think you are incredibly, incredibly creepy if you cover your eye(s) with your hair. And they would be justified for thinking that, because if you wear your hair like that you probably aren't a very nuanced person or are just really undesirable. Therefore, this setup is already seeming far too unrealistic to me. This girl is already treating this guy indiscriminately. He's even called funny after coming in and breaking his bike when the girl is being hit on by some other guy. If a real girl who is, as the show says, a model, sees a scrawny emo kid attempting to "save" them, they will probably just find the kid creepy.

Despite all the cringe, I actually enjoyed this episode quite a bit. I think the cringe somehow made it appealing..?

All true stuff.

But the show still becomes really good as it progresses.

I find it interesting to read that some people truly believe that a girl like Yamada wouldn't be attracted to a boy like Kyoutaro in "real-life", even though the show (and manga) demonstrate on multiple occasions on a deeper level as to why such an extroverted girl (with her own bag of insecurities) falls in love with this introverted, kind-hearted tsundere with plenty of self-confidence issues. Opposites attract, folks!

Indeed, here, in fact, author show the whole process of growing mutual affection from the very beginning. There is nothing surprising in their relationship, given the initial setting and subsequent situations.

That kind of goes with the territory and entirely misses the point the author is making.

Also, you seem to have missed out on a whole lot of shows if you think cringe humour is unique...

I'm going to speak out loud from my PERSONAL THOUGHT and my TASTE. 
- I downloaded 11 episodes so far and today I decided to take a quick peek at episode 1 only to find out that it's boring and probably because this genre is not my taste.
boring boring boring boring. nope I'm gonna delete this anime from my watch schedule list. should have done this alongside Yamadalv999 when I deleted that anime.
thank you and no need to throw rock at me just because your favourite anime is not within my taste.

If you read further in my post, I assume that this was an intentional choice by the author in order to illustrate some point. Also, as far as the many anime romcoms I've seen, I don't think any have done cringe humor the same way that this one has. That being said, your experiences may differ.

No one is forcing you to watch the anime, so why are so agressive?
Just let me tell you that the series' mood and the male mc change drastically along the 11 episodes, but since you're not interested, you'll never find out.

don't judge this anime from the first eps bro, eps 1-3 is prolog and has slow pace with a little cringe thought of the mc, but after that it's became one of the best romance anime out there with great development

All the ingredients that make the show great are there in that first episode, some people are a bit slow picking up on what's going on but get there in the end. Others will simply never find the character's motivations and actions compelling.

That "blackmail" scene from that character that looks like comes from ntr hentai series is the one that makes me drop this series. Literally.

Except if there is a scene where he died or gets wrecked then i'm never going to continue this series. Ever.

Sorry, but that's just kinda how my heart goes. If i am watching a gore/ brutal anime then i just go with it no matter how dark the scene goes. But if i were to watch the said "wholesome" anime and there's a scene or character that comes from hentai anime, sorry but if he's still there/there's no conclusion to his trash deeds then; no can do.
